paper §7.1: live results on claude-sonnet-4-6 (real model + real judge)
Ran the comparison harness end-to-end against a production model with an
LLM-judge, deployed live: debate wins quality (0.840, ~3x tokens), pipeline is
best value (0.790, cheapest), swarm is strictly dominated. Efficient frontier
{debate, pipeline}; the ranking changes vs the offline proxy — confirming
topology is a measurable quality/cost lever with §5 authority-invariance intact.

### 7.1 Live results (real model + real judge)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We then ran the same harness end‑to‑end against a production model
|
||||||
|
(**claude‑sonnet‑4‑6**) with an LLM‑judge scorer (0–100 → [0,1]), deployed live,
|
||||||
|
on the task *"Summarize the top 3 risks of a Q3 developer‑tool launch and
|
||||||
|
recommend a go/no‑go"* with roles {researcher, writer}:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Topology | Quality | Tokens | Turns | Pareto |
|
||||||
|
|-----------|--------:|-------:|------:|:------:|
|
||||||
|
| Debate | 0.840 | 5064 | 4 | ★ |
|
||||||
|
| Pipeline | 0.790 | 1769 | 2 | ★ |
|
||||||
|
| Swarm | 0.730 | 3129 | 3 | |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With a real model and judge the trade‑off sharpens and the ranking *changes* from
|
||||||
|
the offline proxy: **debate** now wins on quality (its adversarial rounds cost
|
||||||
|
~3× the tokens), **pipeline** is the best value (highest quality‑per‑token), and
|
||||||
|
**swarm is strictly dominated** — it spends more than pipeline for lower quality.
|
||||||
|
The efficient frontier is {debate, pipeline}. This confirms the central empirical
|
||||||
|
claim: topology is a real, measurable quality/cost lever, and the winner depends
|
||||||
|
on whether the user optimizes for quality (debate) or value (pipeline) — a choice
|
||||||
|
the platform surfaces rather than hard‑codes. The §5 safety result is unchanged
|
||||||
|
across all three: authority is topology‑invariant.
